Chapter 78 The three princes are pregnant with ghosts(1/2)
Dawu Dynasty, imperial capital.
In a remote private courtyard with elegant scenery, the third prince and Prince Ming sat opposite each other.
The third prince drank a glass of wine directly into his stomach, gritted his teeth angrily, and almost wanted to spit out flames in his eyes.
"Damn bastard."
"Have you found out who did it?"
"Ye Chen, why are you looking for that trash Zhou Yi for no reason!" The third prince directly asked the old man King Wu behind him.
The old man lowered his head repeatedly and took out a piece of white paper in his hand.
It reads: Yan Xuedong, the son of Duke Yan under the eldest prince, has a good personal relationship with Zhou Yi.
I once visited Zhou Lan's Lanzhou mansion, and then Zhou Yi came to the house in person and took away Ye Chen's maid Zi Yu.
"Son of Duke Yan?"
"Big brother's people?"
"He wants to use Zhou Lan's hand to kill Ye Chen."
"Directly driving a wedge between Ye Chen and Zhou Lan, killing two birds with one stone, so cruel, my good brother!" The third prince immediately threw the wine glass and said angrily.
Among the three princes, Ye Chen is most inclined to the third prince.
He even accepted the count and palace given by the third prince.
However, this move now made Duke Zhou Lan, the third prince's most capable man, directly become life-and-death enemies with Ye Chen.
To force the third prince, a choice must be made between the two.
The methods are not cruel.
Of course, Ye Chen was also interested in it.
"Chenxing, you didn't do anything wrong."
"Zhou Lan is very ambitious, and I'm afraid you may not be able to guess his thoughts. Taking this opportunity to send him out is not necessarily a bad thing." King Ming saw that the third prince was angry, and he immediately warned him.
As a king, he can naturally see things more clearly.
"Of course I know."
"Although Zhou Lan is not a big deal, his mother's family, the Zhou family, is very powerful."
"If this ancient hidden family can help me at a critical moment, I will have an advantage in making the decision to become the crown prince in the future."
"That's all, now I can only focus on Ye Chen."
"I hope sister Jingrui listens to my words and goes to see him in person so that we can reach a consensus."
"The army is in danger, but fortunately I can take a step forward." The third prince poured another glass of wine and paid tribute to King Ming.
The latter also smiled.
"The fifth princess's move has been a masterstroke until now."
"As long as Ye Chen defeats the prince of the Great Yan Dynasty and we get the original crystal mine, your financial resources will be the first to show their powerful effectiveness."
"Especially Ye Chen, he hides a huge secret."
"Give him those resources by then, which will be enough to exchange for a large number of royal-quality treasures." Prince Ming couldn't help but take a deep breath when he thought of Ye Chen's weapons and equipment.
"I know!"
"It's not time to dig out Ye Chen's secret yet."
"Do you know Ye Chen's status in Senior Long's heart?"
"Now, Master Baili, he is trapped in the words of Elder Long, asking him to protect Ye Chen and obey his orders completely!" The third prince said and suddenly smiled.
This laughter does have the flavor of schadenfreude.
King Ming nodded.
"A monster like Ye Chen, haha."
"It's better that Mr. Long sees people accurately. The identity of a registered disciple can not only hide people's eyes and ears, but also manipulate Ye Chen."
"Sure enough, ginger is still spicy when old." Prince Ming said with a smile in admiration.
The two continued to talk about Ye Chen's magic, talismans, and various weapons and equipment.
Make detailed plans for the layout of the Dawu Dynasty and its future actions.
Ye Chen unknowingly became a crucial part of the plan.
…
Dawu border area.
The second prince is traveling to other kingdoms and worlds with the strong man who is close to the King of Martial Arts to look for the Origin Crystal Stone and other important resources.
Soon, news came.
"Hahaha, it's really satisfying!"
"Ye Chen, this kid, can be said to be a hot-tempered man. If he directly kills Zhou Yi, things will become more and more interesting!" The second prince laughed and said immediately after reading the news.
The powerful Martial King beside him also had a smile on his face.
"The second prince is so happy, is it possible that your attempt to alienate him was successful?" King Wu asked curiously.
"It's not just a success, it's a complete victory."
"Ye Chen and Zhou Yi broke up completely. Zhou Lan was taken away by his third brother and sent directly to the border battlefield."
"Now, let's see how the Zhou family, an ancient hidden family, can help the third brother!" The second prince said with a sinister look on his face and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
There was a strong light in his eyes.
That kind of pride is far beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
"As expected of His Highness the Second Prince!"
"You kill three birds with one stone."
"I'm afraid that His Highness the Third Prince is still planning to deal with His Highness the First Prince."
"Who would have thought that Duke Yan is actually yours!" The old man, King Wu, looked at the second prince with admiration.
The admiration in his eyes comes from the bottom of his heart.
Indeed, what the second prince is best at is treachery.
The eldest prince and the third prince were surrounded by more or less the shadows of the second prince's subordinates.
Moreover, some chess pieces are hidden so deeply that even the two princes may not be able to discover them.
“Well done.”
"Let Mr. Yan and the others retreat quietly!" The second prince continued to move towards the distance and said the order along the way.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince!" King Wu next to him immediately obeyed, acting simply and decisively.
…
Imperial Capital.
In the royal palace, there was a young man wearing a golden robe with a gloomy face.
Behind him, King Wu's tight-fitting bodyguards were reporting the news.
"Your Highness, the gambling fight planned by the third prince and Princess Jingrui has been approved by the emperor."
"Once it happens, it will be very detrimental to us."
"Moreover, the Yan family quietly left the imperial capital and disappeared without a trace." King Wu said in a deep tone with his head covered in cold sweat.
He was under great pressure.
The eldest prince said nothing, thinking in silence.
After a long time, he looked at King Wu.
"If I had caught Ye Chen earlier, there wouldn't have been so much trouble."
"Master Baili is currently guarding Ye Chen. He still has a super-grade title order in his hand. You don't have any chance anymore."
"As a member of the royal family, you should know the price you have to pay for such waste and inaction!" The eldest prince's voice suddenly became harsher, with murderous intent hidden in his tone.
"I understand!"
"I only wish for Your Highness, and no harm will come to my family!" The old man, King Wu, closed his eyes and said sadly.
How could he have thought that Ye Chen's strength had already reached the level of rules.
Princess Jingrui appeared next to Ye Chen, completely disrupting his steps.
Therefore, failure to do things will lead to disastrous consequences, and the only thing waiting for him is death.
The old King Wu was about to abolish his cultivation and commit suicide, but unexpectedly the eldest prince stopped him.
